National Museum of Korea

The National Museum of Korea is the signature destination for Korean educational programming about Korean art and history. It’s where Korea’s national treasures are found. More than three million visitors a year take in more than three million square feet that house more than 310,000 artifacts, though 15,000 pieces are on display at any given time. You’ll see exhibits that stretch all the way back to Paleolithic history, and include a 10-story pagoda and gold crown.
